    Nope, just collect it for now.

    Wish i had a .22 today, could spend hours out there with that Which reminds me i need to bring my .22 rifle back here next time i drive out to CA.

    It's a bit of a drive, but nothing to bad. If you're going to spend a bit of time there it's well worth the drive. I'm still very new to AR's (shot it today for the first time) and i had a blast, so i am easily amused

    If you can't find anyone to go let me know and i might be up for another trip. Lady doesn't want to do anything tomorrow, so my day is pretty open.

You have to lay your cased guns in the windo before uncasing them. It was pretty rediculous. I am all about following rules and safety but I just didnt like that place. I lost about 150 pieces of .308 brass and didnt even break out the ars because I didnt want to lose my .223 brass. It was $7 to get in the park and $13 to shoot. How much is the club you joined and how far from the metro area?
    I have had nothing but good to say about their range because it is run in such a safe manner and is a lot more comfortable atmosphere than some of the so called open places I've tried (where safety is not existent)but that's just my .02

    After you go there a few hundred times they will start to remember you and be much more easy going with you.

    The mexican guy running the line was super nice I just didnt like the whole experience. I prefer the nice drive through the mountains and shooting in the public areas rather than drive through denver traffic and pay $20

    I cuncur, Cherry Creek sucks..... I was asked to leave about a week ago. I played all their range rules, but when the clown of an RSO reached into my gun case and grabbed my rifle I advised him if he touched my weapon again I would throw him a good beating... He said he was verifying the chamber was empty. Keep in mind I'm retired Military as well as a certified small arms and CQB Instructor, the bolt was locked open with a chamber empty indicator installed. So not only are they over charging but happen to be a bunch of anal retentive wanna be gunners. But, that's just my opinnion.

    If you go to the North Site, it is in the mountains and does not abide by the weather forecast. Your best bet is to go after 10-11 am so you can see what is going on.
